I’m the undoing of the wrongdoing that just keeps doing the wrong
You will find me all along
Breaking down walls
You can’t tell me to fight the system and then tell me to
Not hit the system
So hard
It may
Boot me out of the system
You can’t tell me to watch out for this and when this becomes that I shouldn’t react
I see danger now I’m supposed to wonder
If it means to be dangerous
I’m supposed to be
Courteous
I don’t serve the ludicrous
It’s upsetting to the upsetters when their upset becomes regret at my
Direct
Body
Language
I keep my tongue in check
I know who signs the check
And I also know what I take with me
When I’m no longer at your table or your desk
Who’s at risk
Who’s ass gets kissed
I keep mine in my slacks
I don’t play it back
I just give it back
In the form of react
You own this discomfort
You can’t tell me to stand up for myself
And when I slightly rise
Tell me to not do it so high
Don’t meet them eye to eye
Why?
So
I’m in the moat
Head perched float
Waiting for the drawbridge to come down
Don’t be a wall
You will fall
Because I
Like water
Will find my way through it all
You can’t tell me to say no
And then tell me
You told me
That’s the way it would go
You enjoy the rodeo
I don’t speak
I act
I think
And then I feel
If there is a principle in my rejection to your poisonous injection
It is correct
Before you is the flesh of someone
Not talking back
So quiet
You can’t even hear the pin being grabbed
I have let you in
To strength and pride
You can’t tell me to fight for my life
And then expect me to beg for my life
I’ll take that knife
You mattress tag
I’ll cut you
The cost
Will be a new view
I’ve seen the bottom
I see the top
Each with an ax
Who does the chop
Your offensive existence,
You better leave it Dropped
The beauty that offends you
We ain’t never gonna Stop.
Catch Up.
Enter the future
Catch Up.
